Holly Yashi, Inc. is a jewelry designer and manufacturer located in the northern California town of Arcata.[citation needed]
History
Hosterman and Paul Lubitz founded Holly Yashi in their garage after graduating from Humboldt State University in 1981.[1]
Holly Yashi produces handmade jewelry designed by Holly Hosterman, who has been recognized for her use of the metal niobium.[2][3]
Holly Yashi is also known for its technical innovations in working with niobium, such as the development of proprietary hand-coloration and image-embossing processes, as well as the employment of a water jet which uses crushed garnets to produce filigree.[4][5] Hosterman's designs have been sold by brands such as Anthropologie and featured in magazines such as Good Housekeeping.[6] Her creations for Swarovski are now located in the Swarovski Museum in Austria.[7]
Today Holly Yashi is sold in more than 1,100 galleries and boutiques nationwide and is also featured in magazines, television shows and movies.[8][9]
